Featuring a wide range of bed linen, wallpapers, tableware, and home décor, the collection translates the design, tonal and textural characteristics of each of these cities into a versatile and modern selection of pieces to infuse any space with a sophisticated warmth. Inspired by travel and the country’s diverse heritage, each element in the new collection perfectly displays a minimal aesthetic with simplistic details and a hint of texture.

Among the collections are ‘Cochin’, enveloped in tones of green and gold, reminiscent of the scenic beauty and lush greenery of Kochi; ‘Desert’ which draws inspiration from the unending dunes of the desert of Jaisalmer while celebrating the versatility of the color palette and captures the essence of the region by shades of beige, brown and maroon; as well as ‘Amer’ that showcases the thoroughly detailed architecture of the region embodying the richness and royalty that is synonymous with the historical-cultural heritage of the Royals with a contemporary flair.
